Reject Patriot Act Renewal‏

We need to stop the bulk collection of the private information of the millions of innocent American citizens, and we are getting traction.

Just before the weekend, thanks to your continued pressure, the Senate rejected an extension of the deceptively named and much abused Patriot Act. Please continue speaking out because they are going to try against to push this outrage through again on May 31st.

Please submit the action page above. And after you do, feel free to request one of our beautiful 4 color "Don't Spy On US" bumper stickers. You can have one for no charge, not even shipping, just by submitting the form on the return from the action page. Or you can get one directly from this link.
